Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kitchen equipment, in particular to a vegetable cutting module and a kitchen cutting and dispensing machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the general field of food processing, some bagged foods are processed into sheet or silk-shaped packages for sale. When processing food, if manual processing is used, a kitchen knife needs to be used. However, the kitchen knife is small in size and can process a small amount, which makes the processing efficiency of vegetables and the like too low, and the kitchen knife can also injure fingers if not used properly. In particular, when the processing amount is large, the kitchen knife is not very practical, and it is not only low in efficiency but also easy to damage and waste a large amount of manpower and resources.

[0003] Therefore, some kitchen cutting and dispensing machines appear on the market. For example, a Chinese utility model patent with the patent application number CN202022010469.7 (publication number CN213107202U) discloses a kitchen cutting and dispensing machine integrating a vegetable cutting module and a meat cutting module.

[0004] The existing vegetable cutting module mainly consists of a driving assembly and a cutting assembly. The driving assembly is used to drive the cutting assembly to rotate and cut food materials. The cutting shape mainly depends on the design of the cutting assembly. For example, a Chinese utility model patent with the patent application number CN202122205562.8 (publication number CN215743873U) discloses a cutting assembly with a slicing function, and a Chinese utility model patent with the patent application number CN202123432673.9 (publication number CN216505289U) discloses a cutting assembly with a silk cutting function.

[0005] However, for the vegetable cutting module, first, the blade is fixed relative to the cutter disc, and the cutting efficiency and quality are low, and the cutting difficulty is great. Second, the same set of cutting assembly can only realize the cutting and dispensing of one specification of food materials, and cannot realize the cutting and dispensing of two specifications of food materials. It can only be realized by replacing the entire cutting assembly or replacing the cutter separately, which is troublesome to operate.

[0006] The existing meat cutting module adopts a principle similar to the cutting edge area of scissors to realize the cutting and processing of meat. Two cutting knife rods are arranged in the meat cutting machine frame. The two cutting knife rods rotate relative to each other, and the blades of the two cutting knife rods are staggered to form a cutting edge area. A plurality of blades arranged side by side on the same cutting knife rod can realize batch cutting and processing of meat food, and have very high cutting efficiency. For details, see a Chinese utility model patent with the patent application number CN201921681481.1 (publication number CN210610851U) entitled “Meat cutting machine”.

[0007] However, in the existing kitchen cutting machine, the vegetable cutting module needs high speed and low torque, and the meat cutting module needs low speed and high torque, so different driving mechanisms are needed to drive the rotation shafts of the vegetable cutting module and the meat cutting module to meet the different speed and torque requirements, which is complex in structure and occupies a large space.

[0071] The third blade 62 is installed on the first cutter head part 51 through a blade seat and exposed to the first cutter head surface 511, located on a moving path of the food material moving from the feed side to the discharge side of the cutter head 5 through the first guide section 601, the number of the third blade 62 is at least two, and the third blade 62 is arranged in a width direction of the first guide section 601, and each third blade 62 has a second cutting edge 621 at one end facing the feed side of the cutter head 5.

The first gear 71, the second gear 72, and the third gear 73 form a first speed change gear set, which changes the power of the second rotating shaft 4 and transmits the changed power to the first rotating shaft 221. In this way, on the basis of sharing the same driving member 78, the requirements of low rotating speed and high torque for the meat cutting module 2 and the requirements of high rotating speed and low torque for the vegetable cutting module 10 can still be met.

[0077] The receiving box 8 is arranged at the bottom of the inner cavity of the base 11 and can be pulled in and out of the base 11 through the accommodation opening 111.

The top opening of the first receiving groove 81 is opposite to the first discharge port 213 of the first knife holder 21, and the top opening of the second receiving groove 82 is opposite to the second discharge port 312 of the second knife holder 3.

[0078] The working principle of the embodiment is as follows:

[0079] (1) Meat cutting mode: the driving member 78 is started to drive the seventh gear 77 to rotate, the sixth gear 76 is rotated synchronously with the fifth gear 75, the fourth gear 74 is rotated, then the third gear 73 is rotated through the second rotating shaft 4, the second gear 72 is rotated synchronously with the first gear 71, then the blade 222 is rotated through the first rotating shaft 221;

[0080] When the user needs to cut meat, the meat block is put into the first feeding port 121, and the meat block falls under the action of gravity and is cut into meat slices by the relatively rotating first blade 222. The cut meat slices fall into the first receiving groove 81 of the receiving box 8 through the first discharge port 213;

[0081] (2) Vegetable cutting mode: the driving member 78 is started to drive the seventh gear 77 to rotate, the sixth gear 76 is rotated synchronously with the fifth gear 75, the fourth gear 74 is rotated, then the two sets of cutting assemblies are rotated synchronously around the axis of the second rotating shaft 4 through the second rotating shaft 4. In this process, on the one hand, the rotating seat 642 drives the movable gear 643 and the second blade 61 to revolve around the axis of the second rotating shaft 4, and on the other hand, the movable gear 643 rotates around the fixed gear 641 fixed on the second knife holder 3 to drive the second blade 61 to rotate;

[0082] ① When the slice is needed to be cut, the second rotating shaft 4 is driven to rotate reversely, the food material is put into the second feeding port 122 on the left side into the corresponding first hopper 32, the food material falls under the action of gravity until the first cutting assembly is contacted with the first blade face 511, the second blade 61 revolving and rotating with the blade 5 cuts the food material into slices (since the value of D1 is small, the slice-shaped food material is a slice), the cut slice-shaped food material enters the containing box 31 through the first guide section 601, and finally falls into the second receiving groove 82 of the receiving box 8 through the second discharge port 311;
